VG16. Winter Exhibition plans and the Holidays. by Kathy Fabian

On Saturday and Friday I went down to the thrift shops to look for ideas for Holiday Season decorations.  I had a large amount of really fine stuff right in my hands when all of a sudden I took a clear look at my financial position.  Gingerly I put the stuff back and started thinking how to keep the costs down for Holiday Season spending this year.

I came up with an idea to rely as much as possible on material that I print out from my machine. Cutting the work load also results in less spending.  So this year I am not going to do a special Holiday Seasons Exhibition.

Instead I am going to start the winter exhibit a couple of weeks before the Holiday Season starts. At the same time I will be including hand made ornaments to decorate the images.  These images will be composed of store Christmas ornaments mixed with my art work.

This is the idea I came up with so Saturday studio time was spent getting the Winter Art out of storage and looking for old card images that I could use.  I have already compiled some card images from past seasons but I wanted a good selection of my work and work from others as well.

Filming:

I woke up bright a early on Saturday morning with all sorts of plans about pricing and custom made packages. The night before I listen to Nathalie MacNeil who says now is the time to work with videos.   this gave me the incentive to make a good video for the Holiday Season.

Although the ideas and the desire to communicate were all in place it took a little time to place the camera for the best angle of myself and the Rose Studio.  I also had a little trouble finding the right lighting so that there was not too much glare.

Finally I came up with looks to be a good film.  I still have to do the final processing for it though.

The Before Poster Series

Before posters   The arts in a poor community   When I moved into the downtown sector the plateau Montreal was a very poor community   Although the community was very poor it was densely populated. There were a lot of dry goods establishments mixed with a fair amount of family tolerated prostitution. The police sergeant had taken it upon himself to clean up the area so there were a lot of sponsored artistic establishments Mostly beginning dressmakers. These were young designers that needed a lot of cheap space and fast and they were willing and able to physically fight for their career.  They had many ethnic grocery stores that promoted regional fruits and vegetables  four different kinds of cooking needs. You had Portuguese you had English you had Chinese etc. These culturally diverse grocery stores exist to this very day. You also had a lot of temporary space that could be rented very cheaply for performance. It is from these performances can I tak...

vg39. Creative Strategy for a newspaper Advertiser: Clearosil Perfecto Wash

The book I am reading says to practice making a creative  marketing strategy by using other products. this one is an online newspaper ad.  here goes: The purpose of Clearosil Perfecto wash advertising is to show that the user of this soap will have clear skin no matter what kind of food she eats.  So she can go out with all sorts of great looking people and eat fabulous junk food. This will be accomplished by first of all using very beautiful model in attractive surroundings and making it look very easy and practical to just use the soap and get rid of all potential problems.  The product's convenient aspect is enhanced by a very modern looking funky dispenser that gives the soap with very little effort. The ad will be humorous and the models will maintain her good looks no matter what even if an accident happens: like her hat is taken off by the fan. Tell me how I rate by sending your score from one to ten to kfabian.kathynotes@gmail.com.

Thanks for ArtMoi your art inventory app.  I am working on adding my stuff to it but it takes a long time to load it.  (That's not a big deal). I will be using it more intensively soon.  One thing that is problematic is that I can only enter a few things at a time.  I like all the information that you can enter on the form but again it takes a long time for me to do it one by one. Adding to the time factor is that I am now in the process (only) of creating my reference numbers. I have a bigger machine that works faster in the library but I can't' get th...
